SIZZLING! Free Hotel Nights From Hotels.com!

Hum over 100 people suddenly looking at hotels in AC.
LOL #DansDealseffect

How about 3 1/2 is that considered 3 or 4?

Anything good in AC?

@sl2: Its at 279 now!

anything good in lancaster pa

can this only be booked for one night at a time?

19.97 and 2.85. Does NOT equal free.

Doesn’t seem to be working with every hotel during these dates and there’s nowhere that lists the chains/hotels that work. Any insight Dan?

just booked thanksgiving at harrahs

Sorry people but I spent 10 min searching in AC as well as Houston. Nothing worked. Can’t waste a whole night to save $50

why is this deal considered “sizzling”? also the title is misleading that it says “free hotel room”- when the highest discount is 50 dollars off, and 5 star hotels are usually upwards of 400 dollars, so even 50 dollars off would make it a minimum of $350…

@joey:
$2.85 is free before tax.

@OR:
There are 4 star hotels for $44, that’s pretty hot in my eyes.
Especially because you can book one night at a time and there’s no minimum spend like there usually is.

which hotel? @dan

Any good hotels in Cleveland?

I don’t see where to put in the promo code!

But how do you find which dates are cheaper?? There are no flexible dates searching… Thanks!

Whats a nice hotel in Atlantic City for chanuka time

@mg:

People who get in on the deal don’t take the time to pay it forward.

It’s dead

@Simi

You have to use the pay now option to be able to enter the codes.

@yankees
Anything with half stars will be rounded down for lower savings

Do they charge the card at booking, or when you arrive?

what is a good hotel for wedding night near lakewood

Thanx dan !!

@Red Goldfish: At booking. Unless it has the option of “pay later” but most have free cancellation.

Can I book same room for 5 nights all in 5 separate reservations to take advantage of discount? Or will hotel make me switch rooms each night?

@joe if I knew the I’d be able to get in on this metzia but, these ppl here aren’t letting me know

@David:
99.9% of the time you won’t have to change rooms. That just makes more work for housekeeping.

@y: http://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=9553.0

Can I change the name on the reservation ?
E.g. I don’t/can’t go can I “give” to someone ?

If it’s appearing dead try changing your IP address.

any suggestions for a good hotel by the deadsea/massada

Thanks!!! This coincides very nicely with Spirit Airlines low season. Yes I travel the Greyhound of the sky when it’s only 5,000 miles RT.

@y:
Don’t expect to be spoonfed. Here, or anywhere else in life. I also sent you to the wiki that explains the 3-4 options you have in Lakewood. If you’re too lazy to read the reviews of those places to help you make your decision, then you don’t really care about the place you’re staying at.

Tx Dan booked three rooms in Orlando!
Now I need a cheap ticket to get there from new york😉

$135 for a $350 a night Hotel in Fiji, HoneyMoon here we come!! Thanks Dan

@Eli: bad deal I got the Treasure Islandd for 16 after taxes and its way nicer the the NY NY

Dead

DEAD. THIS COUPON HAS BEEN USED TOO MANY TIMES.

how can I do 30 nights? planning 30 nites in Jerusalem
Thank you

Tried Niagara Falls the message after putting the promo code is. This code has been used too many times

Dan, Thank you very much. Vegas here we come. You’re awesome. Going to a 4 star hotel for under $10 a night, and flight will be free because you introduced me to airline miles. Big thank you from the whole family.

Just an FYI for people who got deals in AC. Hotels in AC in the winter are cheap anyway. $20 is a good price for a room but truth is, Harrah’s isn’t that nice, all rooms can be had on the cheap in winter anyway. Do yourselves a favor and keep an eye on room rates if you are going to AC in December. Keep up the great work Dan!

Canadien Dollar prices are higher than lasts nights US Dollar

If base rate goes down later, how does price guarantee work when you used a coupon?

@tim. Yes 3. Bubbys bistro, burger.org, and jerusalem glatt

Is there a foreign exchange fee for booking in canada on cc. Should i make sure to use a cc with no foreign exchange fee?

did not read every post here but lets not forget that many of these hotels charge resort fees

Apply a discount code
tried ‘3starca’
Apply
That discount code isn’t valid for the hotel you want to book

@tip: prob depends on your cc

Wooohooo Xmas @ Harrahs!!! C u all there!

I’m not able to find anything in Miami, there’s nowhere to put ina promo code

Can’t find anything that works. After entering discount code, always get the message: “That discount code isn’t eligible with the currency of your booking”

Can’t find anything that works. After entering discount code, always get the message: “That discount code isn’t eligible with the currency of your booking”

Can not find where to enter discount code am I on the correct web site http://ca.hotels.com/

booked on hotel and did not have a place to enter code –did not have ” promo code under the rate summary on the right hand side:” as Dan said — is the deal dead? or what am I DOING WRONG?

ABOVE CORRECTION — BOOKED A HOTEL AND WENT DIRECTLY TO CHARGE ME FULL PRICE HAD TO CANCEL RESERVATION

dead?

Booked a Argentinian adventure. Thanks Dan 🙂

Seems like the coupon is dead as of now even on the Canadian site

There was a hotel in Cancun for $4.43

2 nights in tel aviv 4* beach front at $150. thank you dan!

@Tim:

There’s an amazing restaurant in AC- Bubbie’s Bistro. it’s dairy. Everything made fresh to order. It’s fantastic. Best Grilled Cheese, Fish Sandwhiches, and Pizza. It’s also right near the shul.

@Yoni:

really? when did that open, do you know the hechsher

@Joey. Really complaining about $2.85?

Damn hotels.com for only allowing 15,000 uses of this code. I went to book one in early afternoon today for the Canadian site (and last night for the U.S. site), and its already used up.

Dan please respond I lost that deal and Says:
101
August 19th, 2014 at 9:56 pm
And wanna go to AC next week I called Starwood and they charge 7k ($92 2 beds/$105 double) per night at the Sheraton is it a good use for my points or it’s better to keep them for other things…(or even cash them ) and just pay cash or wtv for a diffrent hotel next week
Reply

alive again with code LABCA30, LABCA40, LABCA50,
although there is a minimum spend of 200, 300, and 400, respectively

edit: thats LABCA3, LABCA4, LABCA5

EDIT: and a minimum spend of 200,250,and 300

@emkay: bleh, Thanks for the CX deal yesterday though. I will be up at 8 ready to click.

@DanistheMan:

you clearly never had a room in the waterfront tower buddy

Just received an email from hotels.com cancelling my 4 reservations using this code, saying they were “speculative” (of course they were not — I intended to use them).

I assume others are also getting cancellation notices. Any recourse? This wasn’t an obvious error — just a good deal. Shame on them for not honoring the terms and conditions.

also got an email canceling mine
We have discovered that, in relation to these itineraries, coupon codes were inappropriately used to make speculative bookings or bookings in anticipation of demand as restricted by the terms and conditions found on http://www.hotels.com.

also got my 7 reservations cancelled!
sucks!

I also got the email. All my 11 reservations are being cancelled… 🙁 Hotels.com sucks!

I got the same email. I called and they said they can’t do anything. I sent them an email explaining that I have booked on other travel sites and this is the first to cancel my reservations and that I don’t see myself using there site again. Maybe if enough of us email they will change there minds.

All of mine cancelled as well. Probably due to booking multiple dates, they claim it is speculative. Next time, I will be making separate hotels.com accounts….

The reality is, they forgot to put a minimum spend on the coupon, so they are trying to get out of it. Not cool!

Dan, any pressure you can put on them would be appreciated.

I also got the email. On the phone right now to them. I explained that all the reservations I made are not speculative but going to be used as I’m retired with lots of time to travel.

The woman helping me is re-instating all the reservations and said I would be able to get the promotion price when all is said and done.

After she makes the new reservations she says I’ll then have to speak with someone else to get the promotion rate. So far it seems to be going smoothly

Harrah’s and the borgata are the nicest in AC.

Just off the phone with Hotels.com supervisor…who (surprise) was no help at all. Escalating to their legal department, posting on their FB page etc. Wasted a lot of time on this, and so what’s a bit more at this point? Pisses me off.

this is crazy – how can they do this? Dan – any thoughts?

HUCA, took a little while but got my 4 consecutive nights (4 separate reservations) rebooked at the old price. He rebooked it at the new price and then refunded me the difference. Ask to speak to a supervisor.

i called the executive offices. what a waste of time. explained everything and he said he’d research and get back to me. hour late a bs email stating nothing. basically does not contest that i did not violate the ‘speculative booking’ garbage but that they will not reinstate the reservations.

i was booked at good but not great rates in SE Asia low season only $8/night than i have negotiated with the same hotel before (i’ve had over 200 nights at the hotel). citing a complete bs violation of the T&C with no basis is really slimy. for places with no loyalty hotels i use agoda a lot. i would have used hotels.com in the future if happy with this. as is, never. i need to know that when i make a reservation i’m actually reserving something…

all 4 canceled.
“We have discovered that, in relation to these itineraries, coupon codes were inappropriately used to make speculative bookings or bookings in anticipation of demand as restricted by the terms and conditions found on http://www.hotels.com.”

@Eli:
Websters doesn’t define “cheap” as “speculative”! 🙂

Let’s all complain on social media .i received sawn cancelation email .

All canceled. BS reason given.
